MINIATURIZED SPHERICAL PELLET INTEGRATING ACCELEROMETER.
Abstract
The study program has not produced any definite scientific proofs in any area due to the fact that the program was to small and effort was curtailed and then stopped too soon. An application of implied discoveries to improve certain manufacturing equipment has, however, greatly improved the stability characteristics of G-Switches being built on parallel contracts. In this regard, the pro gram has produced valuable results. The applied improvements have taken the form of tighter, backfill-gas filtering, an improvement of vacuum pump and vacuum facilities, a more rigid observance of proper outgassing, a tighter control of bead processing and storage, and a more accurate control of the backfilling operation. All of these changes in manufacturing procedure are based on the implied probability that the following factors are important in the determination of stability: 1 Beads must be out-gassed at a high temperature. 2 Beads must be protected against H2O and/or O2. 3 Beads must be sealed only in a stable inert atmosphere. 4 Moly-coat layer must be uniform in thickness and quality. 5 G-Switch component parts must be outgassed at a high temperature and must be protected against contamination. Basic facilities now exist to apply the above theories to routine production unless further study shows that tighter, more scientific controls are needed. (Author)
